I went through my lipstick stash to see which bright and pigmented one I use the most, and that is actually the Guerlain Rouge Automatique in Chamade. Logically, I looked for that orangy red in the Guerlain Automatique range again.
The beauty already starts with the bullet: No fidgeting with caps that can fall off, only slide down the button to release its lipstick power.
Coque d'or means "golden shell" in French. With the Olympics opening last friday, I like the idea of going for gold.
Plus I already have a Kose Addiction eyeshadown in Tiny Shell, and now I added a Golden Shell too. The fun of having a sea-themed makeup collection.
Lipstick: taken with flash: reflecting the golden particles.
Lipstick without flash: reveiling the red colour.
I don't have the best swatch again. After my camera died on me, ironically to this theme, sitting at the ocean on a rock while it got splashed by seawater, I had to buy something similar. The similarity lacks at the part that it isn't that good with taking close-ups yet.
As for the Guerlain Automatique texture; I believe it is one of the better lipsticks out there. It is moisturizing without comprimising on its pigmentation.
